W h
I hat a difference a year makes! This
issue of Game Players is more than
twice as big as last year’s — and more
packed with features, reviews, and tips
than ever before. So forgive us if we pat
ourselves on the back for the
toughest job we’ve
ever loved.
filings have
really
. taken off since we
combined our
Nintendo and Sega
magazines with the June
issue, even more than we
, >' hoped for — and we had
pretty high expectations. But
we knew our ideas were right
■ for both the video-game
industry and our readers, and
everybody's support has proved
us right.
Of course, we’re not the
only company that’s had a ,
turnaround in 12 short
months. Take a look at
Sega, folks! Last
year, the
shelves
were empty
of quality
Genesis titles, and
the Sega CD was off to a
fairly rocky Start (accessing... access-
ing...). The only bright spot on the
horizon was newly signed licensee
Konami. Well, Konami’s released just a
few (they’re great, though) Genesis
titles, and we’re still waiting for that
- Castlevania game — but who cares!
There are tons of other top-notch games
from which to choose. And with
Silpheed, Rebel Assault, and AH3-
Thunderstrike, the future looks rosy for
Sega CD as well! Even the Activator,
which drew a collective groan from the
industry when first announced (anybody
still gota Power Glove lying around?),
turned out to be lots of fun.
There hayespftb be some guys
squirming in their cushy executive
chairs over at Nintendo of America —
and if ; they’re not, they should be. The
Summer Consumer Electronics Show
really marked a turning point for Sega.
Nintendo’s Peter Main said publicly that
his company no longer saw CES as a
showcase for new titles. But whaddya
wanna bet the Winter CES in January is
a different story? Sega just looked too
good, from its booth to its games to its
new (and vital) licensee, Capcom. .
Sega’s rating system came out just
after the June show, and regardless Of
what you think about the subject, it
certainly kept the company in the public
eye. It also gave a lot of free publicity to
Mortal Kombat, and if ever there were a
title that could self game systems, M.K.’s
, the one. All we’ve heard in the past few
months are angry Super NES players
demanding blood — the blood of the
people who took the gore out of the
SNeS version.
And finally, we mentioned it last
month, but it bears repeating: Sega’s
advertising campaign is terrific! The
unifying screaming “SEGA!” makes you
watch each and every commercial,
regardless of your interest in the games
that are featured. And we’ll bet you talk
to your friends about them, top.
Whether or not Sega can keep its
momentum going through the next CES
remains to be seen, but we’d be willing
to wager that January brings a real
knock-down, drag-out fight between the
Big Boys — and we can’t wait to tell you
all about it! ■
Happy holidays — and may at least
one Of your presents be a Game Players ‘
subscription.

Games We Wanna See in
Development
Forbidden Planet, now that a remake
of the 1 956 sci-fi classic is in the
works, a video game can't be far
behind. Calling Robby the Robot....
Rocko’s Modern Life:
NickToons’ natural successor to Ren S
Stimpy, and besides, we like to watch
Spunky fill his water bowl.
Spaceman Spiff. Volume 2 of the
“Calvin and Hobbes” collection, it could
be better than Silpheed — there are
teachers to blast!
Pterodactyl Woman from Beverly
Hills, we’d buy a game version of this
in-the-works Beverly D’Angelo movie
just for the title — and we know you
would, too.
The Virus. Chuck Pfarrer's comic book
has everything — smart machines,
intergalactic computer viruses, and
replicating body parts.
Hey — we’ve gotten our wish. Actually,
a couple of them. Several games from
our past Wish Lists are now in develop-
ment. Wolfenstein 3D. of PC fame, is on
the way from Imagineer. And THQ has
picked up Seaquest DSV for Nintendo
and Sega platforms.
Will Sega’s Saturn
Run Rings Around
Competition?
the events that take place on opening night
of a radio station in 1 939 — is one Lucas
thought of 20 years ago while directing
American Graffiti.
According to Variety, the three Indiana
Jones movies grossed $620 million in the
U.S. alone; the Star Wars trilogy brought in
$808 million.
Star Wars
Prequels
Finally on the Way
After years of specula-
tion by the press and
moviegoers, George
Lucas is finally making
plans for his next Star
Ware trilogy. The three
movies, which will be
set ftefcre the movies
that have already been
made — Star Wars,
The Empire Strikes
Back, and Return of the
Jedi — will be shot
simultaneously within the next four years.
There are no scripts yet. Lucas is reluctant
to begin writing the stories until his
Industrial Light and Magic crew comes up
with the special-effects technology he
wants to use. “I’m trying to advance the
technology to a point," he says, “where a
film like Star Wars becomes feasible."
Lucas is also planning another Indiana
Jones movie, and yes, it will star Harrison
Ford. Steven Spielberg will direct, and The
Fugitive screenwriter, Jeb Stuart, will pen
the story.
Lucas is also the executive producer
on Radioland Murders, a romantic/murder
mystery/comedy that began production in
Wilmington, NC, last month. The story —
Hitachi and Sega Enterprises have reached
an agreement that should have a phenom-
enal impact on Sega’s rumored 32-bit
Saturn machine. Hitachi will develop a 32-
bit RISC chip and provide it to Sega for use
in its multi-media home-game machine.
The Saturn machine should be
released next autumn. We hear that it will
be equipped with a CD-ROM player and will
have sharply increased data-processing
speed and high-speed, full-color moving
pictures. Hitachi will develop and market
multimedia equipment for business and
education using the Saturn as a basis.
A spokesperson for Sega of Japan told
Game Players that the company has
already provided specifications for the
Saturn to certain software companies.
Super Mario 5 for
Summer Release?
Production is underway for Mario 5, the next SNES version of Nintendo’s blockbusting
series. We hear that the sprite maps and storyline is complete, and that more than 30
developers are completely devoted to this one project. Normally a team works on as many
as five games at a time. Programming wizard Sigeru Miyamoto is at the helm. Nitnendo
hopes to have the game ready for a summer '94 release.
Zelda Pis in pre-production, but work is progressing on the story. Evidently, players will
have between four and ten characters from which to choose, and each character gets his or
her own ending. Sources tell us that Link’s little brother will help out in this quest.

Still Boldly Going?
Paramount may be rethinking its cancella-
tion of Star Trek: The Next Generation to
pilot the cast to the silver screen. We hear
that the entire cast was recently signed to
fwo-year contracts, even though 1 993-94
was supposed to be the final season. And
the ratings for the season premiere broke
records. In addition, Deep Space Nine, the
show that was launched to take the place of
The Next Generation, still hasn’t captured
the full audience of the latter.
Meanwhile, plans are still in the works
for a big-screen version of ST: TNG, which
will have a time-traveling theme so stars
from the original Star Trek can make
appearances. Leonard Nimoy has been
approached to direct the flick.
Mega Mistakes!

Man X reached us after our November

Autumn Movies
Featured
in Trading Cards
Two hot movies from the autumn are
featured in new trading-card series by
SkyBox.
Demolition Man, which set a box-office
record its opening weekend, is the subject
of a 100-card set, which features behind-
the-scenes shots of stars Sylvester Stallone
and Wesley Snipes, was well as a ten-card
subset showcasing the futuristic cars used
in the movie.
And Tim Burton’s The Nightmare
Before Christmas is the subject of a 90-
card series. The cards feature Jack
Skellington, Zero, Sally, Lock, Shock,
Barrel, and the rest of the puppets from the
movie, as well as a behind-the-scenes
subset. Four bonus Spectra cards are
randomly inserted.
Mortal Movie
Midway Manufacturing Company andWil-
liam Electronics Games have set up deals
for both a feature film and a television
series based on Mortal Kombat. More
details later.
After only four months after its June
release, Jurassic Park surpassed £T.
as history's highest-grossing movie
worldwide. As of October 7, Jurassic
Park had earned $712.1 million
($326.1 million dometic and $386
million foreign. This was without most
of Europe — the movie had yet to
open in France and Spain and had just
opened in Germany and Italy. £ T„
released in 1 982, has worldwide
earnings of $701 million.
Director Stephen Spielburg now
has credits in four of the top 1 0 all-
time moneymakers — in addition to
Jurassic Park at #1 and £ T. at #2, his
Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade
(1989) ranks sixth, and Jaws (1975)
holds ninth place.
And, of course, Jurassic Park is
still raking in the bucks. MCA Pictures
chairman Tom Pollock thinks the
movie will eventually gross $900
million, perhaps even topping the $1
billion mark for the first time in history.
The video-game versions of
Jurassic Park aren't doing too shabby,
either. The Genesis version is a top hit,
and sales of SNES, NES, and Game
Boy are brisk.
Pioneer held a Tokyo preview in mid-
September to show off its first three
titles for the LaserActive machine. The
three titles were 3-D Museum, a library
of 3-D pictures that you look at with a
variety of 3-D glasses; Goku, an
interactive movie staring Songoku, a
legendary Chinese monkey; and (our
favorite title) Melon Brains, which
explores the true life and legends of
dolphins.

TIME FOR
MORTAL
Flying kicks. Super punches. Fireballs. Deathblows.
Some people call this type of fighting “combat. "
But there are others who call it kid stuff. Like any-
one who's sat in the cockpit of an M1A2 Abrams
battletank, ears ringing with each blast of its
120mm cannon. Or someone who, 30,000 feet
above the Mediterranean, banked their F-l 4
Tomcat at Mach 2 to shake a MiG off their tail.
Now we're talking mortal combat!
SOME REAL
COMBAT!
And you can too with our spectacular new 16 MEG
military simulators, SUPER BATTLETANK 2™ and
TURN AND BURN: NO-FL Y ZONE ™ They’re not real
life, of course, but their mind-blowing graphics, senses-
shattering 16-bit sound, and lifelike animation make for
combat action that sure feels that way.
Forearm jabs? Roundhouses? Come on. Forget
the kid stuff. Try fighting like the big boys do.

Jaguar Claws
Its Way Into
Gaming Pack
As the game-machine explosion takes
place, Atari’s Jaguar is poised to give 3D0 a
run for the money. Not only is the Jaguar’s
price tag $500 less than 3D0’s, but it looks
like IBM is coming on board to give the
machine a push. IBM has invested between
$70-80 million to develop Jaguar products:
the IBM plant in Charlotte, NC — which in
the past has made computer processors —
is now talking video games.
The Jaguar uses the same chip as a
Genesis, but custom chips have been
developed to control 3-D objects, improve
sound, and speed up screen displays. Ten
games should be available before the end of
the year, including two games from other
formats, Alien vs. Predator and Tiny Toon
Adventures. There’s also a CD add-on
planned.

Ocean Contest
Offers $5000
Grand Prize
Ocean is sponsoring a nationwide contest to
promote its release of the Super NES
version of Jurassic Park. In “The Great Dino
Egg Hunt,” contestants must find eight
clues scattered throughout the park’s
interior and exterior landscapes. You must
note the specific location of each, then
solve and unscramble the secret message
the clues reveal.
Type or clearly print the clues, their
locations, and the unscrambled message on
an 8.5"x1 1 " piece of paper and submit it
before February 28, 1994 with your name,
age, address, and phone number to: “The
Great Dino Egg Hunt”; P.0. Box 459;
Redwood City, CA 94064-0459.
A $5,000 prize will be awarded to the
first contestant who correctly and com-
pletely finishes the contest. If more than
one complete, correct entry is received, the
contestants will share the award.
Heroes Abound
Jim Carey of “In Living Color" fame gets a
starring role in The Mask, now in produc-
tion. He starts as a mild-mannered guy who
turns into a wise-cracking superhero-type
when he finds an ancient mask. THQ is
developing a video-game adaptation.
Alec Baldwin started shooting The
Shadow in late September. Cast includes
John Lone, Penelope Ann Miller, Peter Boyle,
Tim Curry, Sir Ian McKellen, and Jonathan
Winters. Baldwin also might be interested
in a remake of the Errol Flynn swashbuckler
Captain Blood, which would be directed by
John McTiernan, who directed Baldwin in
The Hunt for Red October.
Joe Dante may direct The Breen Hor-
net, a live-action feature based on the Van
Williams/Bruce Lee TV series. A script is in
the works by Hard Target screenwriter
Chuck Pfarrer, who’s also the author of the
comic book “The Virus.”
And Damon Wayans evidently didn't
learn from pal RobertTownsend's mistake.
Although Meteor Man crumbled, Wayans
Blankman started shooting in September.
In this Columbia Pictures comedy, which
Wayans wrote, stars in, and co-produces,
he plays a nerd who declares himself a
superhero despite his lack of gadgets, su-
perpowers, or a decent disguise. “In Living
Color” co-star David Allen Grier co-stars as
Wayans’ brother, who tries to keep
Blankman out of trouble. Jon Lovitz may
also co-star.
Tons o’ Street
Fighter
The Street Fighter series is officially one of
the most successful in history, with 1 0
million units shipped worldwide. $ome 6.5
million copies of Street Fighter II have been
sold so far, with 2.9 SFII Turbo and 1 .8
million SF Special Champion Edition
expected by the end of March.
The only games so far to sell more
copies are the Super Mario series (100
million) and the Dragon Quest/Dragon
Warrior series (about 15 million).

An Apology to Our Readers
We at Game Players Nintendo-Segamu\d like
to apologize for an ad in our November issue
from a Florida company called Challenge In-
ternational. When we accepted the ad, we did
not realize it would be for what is essentially
equipment to pirate Super Nintendo games.
Naturally, this is an illegal practice that’s un-
fortunately running rampant throughout the
video-game industry, and the result is often
higher prices for you, the consumer. An ad

I have a few questions for Sega. First of all,
why does Sega rate its games? If Lethal
£nforce/sweren’tMA-17,myparentswould
have let me buy it. Doesn’t Sega realize that
the rating on games will only bring down its
sales by the thousands? This is very disturb-
ing. I just missed out on a great game due to
this rating system.
Eric James
Carmel, IN
Sorry, Eric, but that's exactly why Sega
started a ratings system — so your folks
would know what games to refuse to buy you.
But use the ratings asachancetode velop your
debating skills. I’ll bet if you cited examples of
violence in other , lesser-rated games (gee,
Splatterhouse springs to mind, and we know
that Namco was upset by its MA-13 rating) or
in TV shows that you watch, you might con-
vince them to let you whale terrorists in Lethal
Enforcers. Either that or they’ll take away your
gaming and TV privileges entirely!
I really hate it that Japanese releases of video
games are much cooler than their watered-
down American counterparts. I don’t just mean
anime games with 1 2-year-old heroines sport-
ing cleavage and big hair, but ordinary games.
One of the Super Famicom games in particular
had a few extra moves for the hero, like
throwing people through windows, and I’ve
been told some of the Street Fighter- style
games have different combination moves.
Blake Bennett
Lexington, KY
When will there be a good wrestling game
for Genesis or SNES? I think both systems
are too hooked on the WWF. All they give
you are basic moves, then you have a
power move. They should take notes from
NEO-GEO and make a game like 3-Count
Bout.

endo vs. Sega
I want to give you my opinion of the Nintendo vs. Sega fight.
Three years ago, I bought a Genesis and three games. I now have 1 5 cartridges,
two old controllers, and two six-button controllers, the Sega CD, and 14 CD
games. I love Sega, but that doesn’t mean that I don’t give credit to Nintendo
for the things it does.
1 ) Sega Channel: Sega gets a point for this since
it’s something that’s going to change — a little bit
— the way we’re playing.
Anyone
Over 30
Sega 1, Nintendo 0
2) FX Chip: Wow! Giving players the chance to see
3-D graphics is really cool, and the chip to maxi-
4) The Activator: It will get me in the game,
giving kicks to the bad guys. Cool!
Sega 3, Nintendo 1
5) Game Ratings: I have two sisters, one 18,
the other 9. With a GA rating, I know my little
sister is playing a good video game without
inappropriate scenes.
Sega 4, Nintendo 1
6) The Games: Nintendo won last year, but
now Sega has better games. But better than
Nintendo? Call it a draw.
Sega 5, Nintendo 2
There are a lot of us SNES players over 30, and
we love games like Shadowgate, Deja Zu,
Shadowrun, and Maniac Mansion — but these
types of games are few and far between. Come
on, guys! It’s not just a kid’s world out here!
M. George
Shelleyville, TN
I’ve taken all I can stand and must getthis off my
chest: I’m a 33-year-old RPGer. I started out a
few years ago with the NES and played every
RPG I could find: Then the games got few and
farther between. I got a SNES and Genesis, too,
but the games stopped coming, and the market
was flooded with garbage, garbage, and more
garbage. Why can’t the game companies find
anyone to hire that can develop a game? Seems
that they can only copy Hollywood. And I’m so
sick and tired of seeing these fighting games!
Any brain-dead zombie can press a button 7000
times a second. What’s the point?

Burning Question
- September
The Last Word -
Do peripherals such as programmable pads or the
Game Genie add to game play or take away from it?
Which is better — Street Fighteror Mortal Kombaf?
And who’s the fighter you’d most hate to meet in
a dark alley?
I won’t use a special peripheral until I’ve tried to crack a
game on my own. But if I get stuck, it helps to have a
piece of hardware to help instead of getting so frustrated
that you start fantasizing about taking out members of
the design team.
Cameron Morris
Richmond, VA
I’d have to go with Mortal Kombat for two reasons: its
graphics seem much better than Street Fighter's or
almost any other game. And you get to do a lot of cool
finishing moves in Mortal Kombat. The fighter I’d least
like to meet in a dark alley would probably be Sub-Zero
— I like my body temperature to stay above 0 degrees.
Mark Straszewski
Trenton, NJ
I like Street Fighter //because it was made by Capcom,
the best game company ever, and because it’s the best
game ever in the video-game world. I have Street
Fighter II Turbo, I don’t plan to Mortal /Comtef because
the Super NES version sucks, and I play nothing but
Nintendo. I would, however, most hate to meet Sub-
Zero in a dark alley because he pulls your head and
spine right off of you. Ouch!
Joe Moore
San Diego, CA
I think Mortal KombatoiAc\asses Street Fighter II majorly.
For example, the characters look more realistic than
some hairy monsters. Second, the fatality moves rule'.
Even the special moves are cool. The only problem is that
the Super Nintendo version has no blood option. The
person I would hate to meet is Scorpion — he could torch
me.
Wesley Phillips

wide selection of moves that Mortal Kombat has to
offer. As for meeting one of them in a dark alley; I
know I would meet my doom with the eye-less
thunder god named Rayden.
Dustin Elliott
Hebron, KY
In my opinion, Mortal Kombat is better than SFII. It has
better graphics and better sound FX. Don’t get me
wrong, I love SFII, but Mortal Kombat has the thing
everyone wants — blood!
Michael Mascara
Ft. Pierce, FL
How can you compare the two greatest fighting
game powerhouses of all time? Both Mortal Kombat
and Street Fighter II are great in their own ways:
Street Fighter II has cartoony characters, and Mortal
Kombat give you a more realistic feel. Raiden is my
favorite brawler because his SNES finishing move is
still cool!
Josh Kramer
Camas, WA
Mortal Kombat for Genesis has bad graphics, bad
sound effects, and should have more characters and
more special moves. You’ll get bored with it in a week.
Street Fighter II has more variety, better graphics, and
more moves. Kano would not be the one to meet in a
dark alley because he’s a criminal and his red eye
would freak me out a little.
Jeff DeVault
Broomall, PA
Street Fighter. More fighters, more moves, better com-
bos, harder game play.
Daniel Bowen
Wesley, AR
I am the happy owner of both SFII and Mortal Kombat,
and I think I can honestly say that I enjoy the fatalities and
The reason's in the fatalities!. You’d never see Ryu rip
Sagat’s head off with a dragon punch. And where’s the
btoocR I’m only going to buy Mortal Kombat. I’ve rented
SFII Turbo and like it, but it just wasn't it SFII may be
a veteran, but move over — Mortal Kombat is gonna
knock you out. I’d hate to meet Raiden in a dark alley
— he’s a thunder god and could kick my butt and
make my head explode.

The new Street Fighter 2 Turbo is better than Mortal
Kombat— I went right out and purchased it soon after
it came out, but I stayed home on Mortal Monday. SF
Turbo has more characters and better play control —
at lease until Super Street Fighter is translated. With
Mortal Kombat I either get the better graphics and
sound with the SNES version, or better play control and
“blood and guts" with the Genesis. Either choice
leaves me worried about what I’m missing.

Julius
Clearwater, FL
A frontal assault won’t work. When he throws
his head at you, jump over him (fly if you can
— but be quick) and hit him from behind.
After a fast hit or two, get a way from him and
wait for him to throw his head again.

Letters and faxes asking this question have

Obviously, it's a mystery that won’t go
away, although any hardcore arcade addict
could answer it as well as we could.
They’re not hard to spot — just look for the
guys walking through the streets with their
arms outstreched yelling “Mortal
Kombaaaat! Mortal Kombaaaat!
Anyway, Reptile
is that strange
fighter who looks
like Scorpion or
Sub-Zero except
he’s dressed in
green. He drops in
every so often,
taunts the player, then leaps out again.
Getting to fight him is a once in a lifetime
event — check this:

I’m stuck in Phantasy Star III. I'm on the
third generation, playing as Sean. I’ve
found Laya, and of course I’m with the
cyborgs, but I can’t find Kara. Please help.
Bryan
Tucson, AZ
Once you’ve found Laya, you’d better pack a
lunch — you’ve got some serious walking
ahead of you! Travel to the cave in the
southwest corner of Aridia and open it with
Laya 's Mystery Star. It takes you to Frigidia.
Go to Mystoke, talk to all the villagers, and go
to Mystoke Castle. Laya’s Pendant is in the
heart of the castle ; USE it to hear Laya's story,
then head north from Mystoke to find a pair of
temples. There's a large blue square inside
every temple, and now that you have Laya’s
Pendant, you can use the squares to teleport
to temples on other planets.
The eastern temple leads to southern
Elysium. From there head north to Aerone.
Talk to the villagers for clues to the rocket
shuttle east of the village, then take the
shuttle to Dahlia, Lune's base. Talk to Lune
and his daughters until Kara joins you ; she
has Lune’s Slicer. Also, be sure to check
through Dahlia Dungeon for the Aero parts.
1) He lives
in the bottom
of The Pit, so
that's the only
area you can
find him —
and even then
only in one-
player Tournament mode. SNES players get a
chance every time the Pit comes around, but
Genesis players must watch for odd silhou-
ettes floating across the moon (Genesis
owners take heart, however, and check out
this month's Codebreakers).
2) Don 't use any blocking moves while
fighting in The Pit. You know, L and R for
SNES, Start for Genesis, or B and Yon a
Genesis 5-button pad.
3) You must score a Double Flawless
victory.
4) Destroy the opponent using your
Finishing move.
If you do everything correctly, you
should wind up in The Pit fighting Repb'le.
He can use all the moves of both Sub-Zero
and Scorpion, but if you beat him, there'sa
bonus often million points!
Use Hast
Vikings
What do you do next after you get all three
Vikings to the red keyhole on the last level
of Lost Vikings for SNES? Where’s the red
key? What does Eric do after he uses the
transporter and has to face Tomator all
alone? We really need your help! We've
been working on this level for two-and-a-
half weeks!
Danny
Halifax, MA
Look for a bunch of food and a shield or two
on before you reach this area — make sure
you give Eric as much as he can carry.
Tomator throws two bombs and shoots his
ray gun (in that order). Stay a step or so away
from him so the bombs lob over you, then
jump to the ladder in the center of the room to
stay above his shots. His forcefield turns off
and he moves to the other end of the room —
drop and have Eric charge into him while his
field is down. It takes six or so hits, but
eventually he disappears. The red key is off to
the right.
By the way, this isn’t the last time you
see Tomator. The Vikings must combine their
talents to finally kill him off: Use Olaf's shield
to protect you, Baleog’s flaming arrows to
take down his forcefield, and have Eric
charge into him to push him back
I’m stuck in Shadowgate. When I go to get
the staff, I get stuck when I reach the troll
on the bridge. Can you help me?
Damian
Lisbon, OH
The troll guard wants a
toll, but hit him with
your spear instead of
paying him. When you
come back a second
time, however, he’s
wised up and your
spear won’t work. Use
the Humana spell
instead to sneak by.

I'm having trouble with Shadowrun. I have
the dog collar and a ghoul bone, but I can’t
find the third thing to take to the Dog Spirit
for a spell. And where can I get the most
money? I never have enough to hire
anyone!
Rusty
Newark, OH
Here ’s a complete list of what the Dog Spirit
needs for different spells:
• Heal: Dog Collar from the dog in the town
square, Magic Fetish from the Rat Shaman,
and enchanted Leaves from Kitsune.
• Summon Spirit: Dog Collar and Dog Tag
• Power Ball: The Ghoul Bone from the
graveyard near'the Grim Reaper and the
Meteoric Iron Paperweight from the room next
to Glutman’s office.
• Invisibility: Toxic Water from the town
fountain and Clean Water from the ghost ship,
held in blue and purple bottles from the
talisman shop.
• Armor: Dragon Scales from the volcano,
and Mermaid Scales from the docks.
• Freeze: Black Bottle filled with octopus ink
and Mermaid Scales.
There’s no easy way to earn money. At
the beginning, fight anyone who takes a pot
shot at you. After Glutman sends you to the
car yards in Chapter 2, you’ve got a good
chance to build both karma and money:
There’s a bed in the northeast corner of the
yards where you can rest and save the game.
There’s also a small area where you’re
attacked at random in the middle of the
southern edge — fight here until you’re
strong enough to make real money in the
Arena. It takes longer to get out of the yards
by fighting the king than paying him off, but
you’re in better shape if you face him in the
Arena.

How do you get past the last guard on
level 15 and beat the game? I can crawl to
the panel and flip the switches, but then
the guard kicks me in the head! What do I
do?
Patrick
Yakima, WA
You’ve got the right idea, you’ve just got no
timing. Once you’ve reached the switches,
wait until the guard overpowers your alien
friend and comes after you. When he’s in the
center of the room, flip the switch and watch
him get destroyed. Crawl back to the center,
and you and your friend are zipped out of the
room. He throws you over his shoulder, and

You should have a smoke bomb after your
encounter with the Japanese tourists. When
the gang shows up, head for the Golden Bowl
Bar and talk to Ray, the guy at the door. He
won’t help you, but he eventually gives you a
wrench. Throw the smoke bomb at the gang,
and while they're obscured by the cloud, use
the wrench to open the nut on top of the
hydrant (as usual with Willy, timing and
positioning are tricky). Run away while the
gang is being doused, and head for the
Tootsweet Pavilion, where you run into the
tourists again. Tell them “Help! Those guys
are gonna clobber me!" They turn out to be a
family of ninjas who bail you out.

I found some tips for SFIItor SNES.
• For an easy KO of Balrog with Guile, back
into a corner, hold back and repeatedly hit
fierce. This creates spinning backfists and
kills him every time.
• After you’ve used the code for Same vs.
Same, you can hit Start when selecting
your character to get the Champion
Edition color uniforms. For the original
color, hit A.
• To change control configuration during
game play, repeatedly hit Select and Start
at the same time during the Vs. screen
(right before the match begins).
• To beat Vega easily with Chun Li, jump
in one spot, using roundhouse kicks
whenever he comes in close.
• For Ken and Ryu's double-hit dragon
punch, press the button once while
pressing Forward and again when back
around.

Can you help me find it?

Oh, I think we can help. First, head into the
Mysterious Woods until you meet a raccoon
who tells you that you’ll get lost. Sure enough,
if you try going north away from him, you
wind up going in circles. Find the cave with
the sign outside
that warns you
not to step on
cracks. Enter
the cave and
follow it until
you come to a
clearing with a toadstool you can grab. Go
back through the cave, then take the path
north until you reach a cave blocked by three
rocks. Take the path east until you come to
the Witch’s Hut. Give her the mushroom, and
she uses it to make you some magic powder.
Use the powder
on the raccoon,
and its spell will
be broken. Just
to the north is a
chest with the
Tail key. Voiia!

Patience and a keen eye are key. You can’t
attack the Master Robot directly — he ’s
hedgehog-proof — but notice that the energy
bombs bouncing around can hurt him. There
are several different patterns, but if you stay as
far to the right as you can — without touching
the Master Robot, of course — you give
yourself more time to avoid them. Keep
dodging, and he keels over once he ’s had
enough.
I’ve played Sonic 2 enough to be able to
identify almost all of the sound effects. The
one I can’t find is Sound Test #1 0. Is it a

I’m in the bathroom in Harley’s Humongous
Adventure, but I can’t get through the pipes.
I take every path, but there's a dead end on
each. Please help!
Believe it or not, for the last several months,
this has been the most asked question about
Sonic 2 Don't you folks think you’re spending
a little too much time with one game?
However, just for you — and John, and
Travis, and all the other readers who seem
obsessed with the music of blue hedgehogs —
sources at Sega tell us that Sound Check #7 0
was written for a level that was planned, but
then eliminated during Sonic 2’s design.
At that point, however, the soundtrack
had already been completed and added to the
game, so Sound Test #10 remains in the sound
file even though there's no level in which to
hear it. Apparently this isn 't uncommon in the
industry, and if you really want to check every
game that closely, you can find other ex-
amples.
I’m stuck in Sonic 2 for Game Gear. All I
need to get to the Crystal Egg level is the
second Chaos Emerald. Can you help me?
Brad
Stony Plain, Canada
The second emerald is in the Sky High Zone,
Act 2. Ride the first hang-glider up, up, and to
the right. The emerald is in the right corner,
above the clouds. By the way, the quick way
through this stage is to keep going to the right
after you grab the jewel.
Help! S.O.S.! I really need your help. I really
love Sonic the Hedgehog, so I bought Sonic
2 tor Game Gear. I’ve tried everything to get
past the boss in Act 3 of the Underground
Zone. I’m a Sonic crazy girl, and I need
help!

The way out of the bathroom isn 't through the
tub drain. Go down to pick up the bonus items,
then beat a hasty retreat before you run out of
air! Return to the surface and look for a bar of
green soap. Push it into the water, jump on top,
and start running. After a moment, you
produce a bubble. If it doesn ’t surround you,
jump into it, then use it to float up to a series of
towel bars. When your bubble pops (or is
popped by a critter), leap on the bars, following
themupand to the right until you find the
machine part that ends the stage.

There's a glitch in the SNES version that
goes like this: Choose Sub-Zero vs. any-
one in a two-player match, then win the
first round. Use three uppercuts and
two foot-sweeps in the second round
— your opponent should have almost no
life left. Freeze your weakened opponent
with an Ice Blast, which takes away his
final energy. Whenthegameyells “Finish
Him,” do the Fatality move — you freeze
the already frozen character, splitting
him into two different people! One is
crushed into ice while the other remains
standing.

VictorMaxx’s StuntMaster beat Sega’s VR to
the market by four months or so, but should
those techies dying for Virtual Reality adopt
early? And if not, will Sega’s VR be any
better?
After initial testing, our TechTalk team
came away with varied opinions of the
Stuntmaster — and most folks were
disappointed. Although this is the only low-
cost video-game compatible VR accessory
on the market today, it still fell short of what
we expect from VR gear. But this was first-
generation hardware, and updates should
include many options our version couldn’t
because of engineering tradeoffs, including
a vitally important focus knob. We found the
image inside the headgear so out of focus
that one of our testers got a headache after
only five minutes of playing — and he has
20/20 vision!
Other tradeoffs include a lack of
padding on the nose bridge (ouch!) and a
limited field of vision. The Stuntmaster does
have left-to-right tracking (if you move your
head to the left, the character goes left, and

vice versa), plus stereo sound. Still, it’s
more like a Viewmaster than a VR helmet.
Whether or not the novelty of being the first
on your block to own one makes up for
blowing $200 is up to you. The upgraded
unit will sell for $350 or so. A little pricey,
but you get a much better unit. If you can’t
wait... don’t say we didn’t warn you.
As far as Sega goes, we still hear that
it will be next summer before its headset is
ready. We hear that Sega’s had trouble
with the tracking mechanism.
So while you've got to praise Victor
Maxx for being first on the market, the
Stuntmaster still has a long way to go.

stages.
Haw to Injure
The jump kick
is your fastest
attack — use it
for 90 percent of
your work. Learn
it, do it, live it.
Don’t use the chop unless there’s only one
enemy around. It’s very slow, and once you
start a swing, there’s no way to stop.
There are two or
three spell
variations, but all do
the same amount of
damage. Save them
for bosses.
The jump swing won’t get you out of harm’s
way like a jump kick, but you can use it to hit
enemies immediately behind you.
The shield isn’t an attack — it’s a
desperate attempt to avoid damage.
Jumping away is usually better.
Beginning af the Quest
Bowmen — They stay at
the screen’s edges and
take only one shot to kill.
Spearmen — Common
grunts who show up in every
stage.
Swordsmen — Almost
as common, they’re
better at blocking your
attacks, and they can
jump around.
Bog Monsters
— These slime-
covered
skeletons aren’t
any more
dangerous than
anything else,
but you fight
them while knee-
deep in muck.
Also one of the toughest. You must stay inside the
range of his staff and kicks. Jump-kick to get close,
and hang with him as best you can.
First Boss
— This tree
monster can be
hit only with
jump attacks.
Blast it with
spells, then
finish it off.
Attack Dogs — Hard to hit, but
they die with one blow.
The Citg
Thieves — Sneaky little
goons, they like to come at
you from behind.
— Imposing,
but stupid. Their axes
give them a long reach.

The Black
Skeletons — Very good at

can also take a lot of
damage. Be careful.
Temple
Wizards — Slow and
basically ineffective as
warriors, they can still pack
a wallop if you’re not
careful.
Third Boss — Easy to
defeat with jump attacks;
however, he brings in a friend
after taking a certain amount
of damage. Blast the gargoyle with spells if he gives you any trouble.

The GAM Defensive/Offensive Mechanism
Carefully watch the GAM’s power meter — once it’s
exhausted, the GAM must recharge and your Halbard
is left unprotected.
When you’re on
the defensive,
use the GAM’s
powerful attack
against larger
bios.
But when you’re on
the offensive, this
formation enables
the GAM to protect
your ship — use it in
overcrowded areas.
STAGE 2: DESERT RAVE
STAGE 1:
METAL STORM
STAGE 3: PSYCHEDELIC CAVE
Watch out for dead
ends deep within the
cave. Power-up the
Wide-Beam Rifle or
Laser Cannon to
defeat the larger bios.
Use the GAM for protection,
and keep in mind that it must
recharge before you meet the
boss.
Wave after wave of bio-drones and
bio-worms are nonetheless no match
for the GAM’s attack and defensive
abilities.
BOSS: Avoid
the spores,
shoot directly
into the flowers,
and use the
GAM as
protection.
THE RAVE REVOLUTION
BOSS: Stay high and use the
GAM for protection. Target its
eye.
Although Techno-Rave is still in its infancy, its mesmerizing
beats and fierce hooks have grabbed devoted followers, even
though the musical industry has ignored it other than an
occasional news report on its evils.
Since its early beginnings in German houseclubs, T echno-
Rave was seen as high-end, high-energy dance music played
by DJs with esoteric tastes. It wasn’t until 2 Unlimited's
“Twilight Zone” and its infectious follow-up “Get Ready for
This” broke into the worldwide dance charts that the U.S.
mainstream began to take notice. Last summer, AB Logic’s
“Get Up” topped out on many top 40 crossover stations.
Kelly Rodgers, a producer for Activision, is a big fan of
Rave, and it was his idea to use it to replace the original
Japanese soundtrack in Bio Metal. It was also his idea to
contact the group 2 Unlimited, a leader in Techno-Rave.
As we reported last July, licensees such as Virgin Inter-
active (Global Gladiators ), Interplay ( The Lost Vikings), and
JVC ( Jaguar XJ220) are currently incorporating Rave-like
soundtracks into their games. And Techno-Rave dance com-
pilations are some of the best-selling products in record stores
across the U.S. The tunes just keep getting better....
BOSS: Again, target its eye and
continue firing until it’s destroyed. Use
the GAM in close-attack runs.

- the teailymS days, like Middle Ages old.
Ah, the good old days ...
Years before there was a King Arthur or a Round Table, there was a
soon-to-be-famous young wizard named Merlin. Jolted out of a
sound sleep by the cries of a young woman, he rushed outside to find
a maiden drowning in a river. Without a moment's thought for his
own safety, he dove in after her. Maybe he should have thought for
a moment, however, because his heart was bigger than his biceps,
and the strong current pulled him under.
But soon-to-be-great wizards can’t be killed so easily. When
Merlin awoke, he found himself in a strange land, one ruled with an
iron fist by the evil Shadow King. Since the land was low on heroic-
types, he figured he’d give it a shot.
If you’re looking for something that's both different and good,
check out Young Merlin. It’s a prime nominee for Sleeper of the Year
— there’s no overhyped marketing campaign, just a consistently
entertaining game that’s a joy to play. Part action, part RPG, part
puzzler, every part of Young Merlin looks great and plays even better.

Let's cut to the chase: Secret of Mona is the best RPG for
Super NES we've seen all year. Square Soft, maker of the
various Final Fantasy games, is known for its fine work,
but the designers have outdone themselves this time.
Mana is not only huge, but the graphics also set a new
standard for 16-bit RPGs, with lush landscapes andlarger-
than-usual characters. It's simply packed to the gills with
great stuff.
In a welcome departure, combat is handled in an
arcade style. While some purists might object, this combat
is smooth and challenging, not a thumb-busting exercise.
It keeps things moving faster than in a normal RPG, and
it also lets one, two, or (if you've got a multi-tap) even three
people play at the same time.
So what are you waiting for? If you miss this one,
you're missing out!

Zombies Ate My Neighbors'^ a video-game adaptation
of just about every B movie ever filmed. In addition to
protecting your neighborhood from the grave rejects in
the title, you must fend off weitewolves, mummies,
aliens, and a bunch of other classic movie monsters.
The object is simple: Grab your/iffighbors before the
ghouls do.
At the beginning of the gaifie, you have ten neigh-
bor victims to rescue, and you goto certain number of
points for each one. If you save them all, you get a ton
of bonus points at the end of the levctExtra victims pop
up at certain point levels, and if all your neighbors meet
their doom (or if you loose three lives) the game's over.
You’re armed with a squirt gun at the beginning of
the game that safely takes care of the zombies. But to
take on the tougher monsters, pillage your neighbi
houses in search of plates, silverware, soda cans, am
any object suitable for slinging at evil fiends. Careful
voters can also find first-aid kits and handy potions.
^ Zombies Ate My Neighbors is a truly inventive
njjame that has enough strategy to keep things
rolling. The graphics and sound effects are adequate,
and the spooky soundtrack is particularly appropriate.
coolest thing about the game, however, is that it
has 55 levels, most chock-full of secret passageways
and humor and replay value,
Zombies is sure to keep youjrusy for quite awhile!

Marvin the Martian from taking over

That’s right! In Daffy Duck: The
Marvin Missions, based on the classic
Looney Tunes cartoon “Duck Dodgers

sidekick? Luckily, Porky Pig is on

frofn a bunch of weapons, and therej|

I J SunSoft is to video-gaming what
Goodyear is to race-car tires —
both companies burn rubber to stay
in front of the competition. Speed is key,
and the Looney Tunes license is quickly
putting SunSoft at the front of the pack.
Sure, Sonic is synonomous with
speed, but long before there were video
games, the Looney Tunes characters
were blazing new trails on the cartoon
scene. In its second year of a five-year
licensing agreement with Warner
Brothers to use the Looney Tunes
characters, SunSoft has already released
The Roadrunner’s Death Valley Rally for
Super NES, Taz-Mania for Super NES,
and Speedy Gonzales for Game Boy. A
SNES version of Speedy is expected in
time for the 1994 holidays, but it could
be ready as early as August or Septem-
ber.
“The hunger for video games south
of the border is tremendous, and Speedy
is definitely a south of the border kind of
character,” said David Siller, director of
product development for SunSoft.
Next up, however, is Rabbit
Rampage for Super NES, which pits
Elmer Fudd, Yosemite Sam, and the
Tasmanian Devil against Bugs Bunny.
The title is expected in January and will
feature a lot of in-your-face, slapstick
action — the type of humor that made
Bugs Bunny famous.
Gamers will be glad to know that
Wile E. Coyote gets another chance to
stick a fork in the Roadrunner. This time,
the cunning coyote even gets top billing
— the name of the game is Wile E. ’s
Revenge. You can count on new Acme
contraptions, too.
SunSoft has also let Game Players
know that it will be making another
Tasmanian Devil title for SNES, and Taz
will be making an appearance on Game
Boy as well. These games are still in the
early stages of development, so few
details were available. Expect the
games, however, for next year’s holiday
season.
“When we made the first Taz title
for SNES,” Siller says, “we wanted a
game that moms, dads, and first-time
gamers could enjoy, not just 12 to 13

Straight Pool
““ “ ee kSe , 2“ ‘i
'/■ » • • - n • • ^^> >1
Side Pocket
Here, you pocket the balls in any order, with each
successful (and legal) shot counting as one point.
The first player to reach an agreed-upon point goal
is the victor.
The Shots
The most basic pool shot involves a straight
line between the cue ball, the object ball (the
one you're aiming for), and the intended
pocket. Give serious consideration — even
on simple shots — to the power of your shot
as well as the English you apply.
This combination of straight pool
and Nine Ball is unique to the video-
game world. Each board has a
different rack (beginning arrange-
ment) of a certain number of balls
(which changes with each board).
You should hit the balls in order, but
if you can’t, just sink as many as
possible or use trick shots.
J
At the end of the game, you get points based
on 1 ) the number of balls you sank in
sequence, 2) the number sunk in a row, and
3) the number of trick shots you successfully
completed.
A combination shot causes your object ball
to hit another and send it hurling toward a
pocket. This kind of shot is especially useful
in Nine Ball or in games where you must hit
balls in order, but there’s no hope of sinking
i the next ball in sequence.
The idea of a bank shot is to bounce
the cue ball off a rail, causing it to hit
your intended object ball. Use a bank
shot when another ball is in the way
of the one you want to hit.
When the object ball
isn’t in lined up between
the cue ball and the
intended pocket, try to
cut the ball. Aim the cue ball so it hits the object ball slightly off center. Cut
the ball left, for example, by aiming at the right side of the object ball.
SPIN
English
describes the I
various spins you can put on the cue ball by hitting it slightly off
center. Hit the cue ball left of center, for instance, to cause it to
spin right (clockwise) and curve slightly to the left. English makes
the object ball curve noticeably in the opposite direction.

C hampionship Pool is best described as an electronic billiards
simulator. Overall, it’s rougher around the edges than Side Pocket ;
but it makes its case as the definitive simulation of the real game by
providing you with just about every game-play option you could want,
and then some!
Check out all the variations on the basic game on the main menu, and be
sure to give the freestyle game a try. In freestyle, you’re given a choice of racks,
then can gofromthere. If you wantafive-playerversionof 1 3 Ball with the stipulation
that balls coming into contact with an orange ball before dropping inthe pocket
must be returned to the table, you can.
Aside from the sometimes awkward controls, Championship Pool is the
perfect game for serious pool players who want to play at home without giving
up floor space for a table.
Data East; 1850 Little Orchard Street; San Jose, CA 95125
f’i ide Pocket is slicker than Championship Poo/, with
l * excellent graphics of both the table and the babe that
% appear between rounds. The music and sound
f 1 effects are equally impressive, particularly the
S-/ crystal clear “presented by Date East” announce-
ment that opens the game. The interface is also easier
to handle than Championship Pool’s intensive menu
arrangement.
However, Side Pocket isn’t really faithful to the game
of pool. You can play two-player Nine Ball, but you’re
generally limited to the unique Side Pocket roles we
described earlier. At the same time, the fast-paced game
play, killer sound and graphics, and the overall Vegas feel
make Side Pocket enjoyable for casual players.

T he world has
i been thrown
ij into chaos:
^BSSl Men have
been changed into wolves,
buildings have sunk into the
sand, and mutant beasts roam
free. People have abandoned
cities to seek refuge in the coun-
tryside, hiding like animals.
Arm iesbegin to lootand pillage.
From a remote corner of
England, Baron Fortesque
watches the confusion. The
power-hungry autocrat has
forced a scientist to create a
Chaos Engine to throw the world
into flux. But without warning,
the machine imprisons Baron
Fortesque and transforms him
into a horrid beast. Meanwhile,
the machine continues to alter
time and space.
Enter the Soldiers of For-
tune, mercenaries who each
possess a special ability, You
choose two from the six at your
disposal, then send them into
the baron's estate to destroy
the machine. One highly-rec-
ommended strategy: Go it
alone. Enteratwo-playergame,
kill off the second character,
then collect all the money for
yourself.
Soldiers of Fortune is a little
like Gauntlet ... without even
that much excitement. The
graphics are fine, and there are
some interesting puzzles and
other secret stuff, butthe game's
control leaves something to be
desired. You usually wind up
being more frustrated than chal-
lenged. On the other hand, if
you can play with a friend, you
could do worse than Soldiers of
Fortune.

The 1-Team
Brigand: One of the
two most balanced
characters, you
can’t go wrong
using him or the
Mercenary — they’re average at
everything, although Brigand is
better looking.
Gentleman: Like the
Scientist’s gun,
Gentleman’s flamer
passes through
monsters, so a
single burst can injure more than
one. His map is useful if you’re on a
level for the first time.
Mercenary:
Tactically, the only
difference between
the Brigand and
the Mercenary is
each man’s special power-up. The
Mercenary’s first-aid kit comes in
mighty handy by the time you get it.
Nawie: If you go it
alone and kill off
your second
characer, either
Nawie or the Thug
would be your character of choice.
He’s slow, but very powerful.
Scientist: Like the
Gentleman, his lightning
gun does all its damage
in one shot — and you
can’t block his gun or
the flamer either. Other characters’
damage is divided among each bullet
from their multi-shot weapons and can
be blocked.
Thug: Sure, he’s
dumber than a
crowbar and twice
as ugly, but he also
has the most
powerful weapon and the longest life
meter. You don’t get a trenchcoat
or trendy ponytail, but you survive.

Take the south road at 1 , then kill all the monsters along the north
route to open the path to the gold key. Be sure to kill the Lobber
to the left of the stairs at 2 to open the bonus area to the north.
You’re surrounded by Chaos Beetles at — grab the dynamite to
destroy them, then watch out for frogs as you get the gold rings.
Be on the lookout for a face on one of the columns after getting
the gold key at 4 — it opens the bonus area to the east.
The ring at 5 moves the silver keys from the top of the rock. The last of the six gold keys
in this level is at point 7. It opens exit B to a bonus area on the next level; you can reach
it only if you have all the gold keys.

Exit B in level 3 leads to the southeast corner
bonus area here. Shoot the block at 1 to open a
path to the bonus items on the northern wall —
but you miss the rest of the level if you go that way.
The cave at point 2 looks dangerous, but it
teleports you to the bonus area in the southwest.
The node in the pit at 3 can be activated either
by dropping a bomb down there or grabbing the
node-activator icon. Keep moving if you use the
icon — a whole crowd of Lobbers starts dropping
stuff on you! You can shoot either of the two
blocks at 4, but not both. The one to the right
holds a gold key that opens stairs to the bonus
area behind you.

It can be just a little nerve-wracking to face one of
wrestling's most grueling and brutal events. It's
an event that determines the strongest, fiercest,
meanest wrestler ever — it's King of the Ring.
This Game Boy action title has only one pur-
pose: to pit wrestler against wrestler, man against
man, beast against beast — with no holds barred.
So who's it going to be? Are you going to play as
6'8" Hulk Hogan? Massive Yokozuna? How about
"Hit Man" Bret Hart? It doesn't matter because
there are a tons of giants from which to choose,
including one you can create from scratch.
Besides the King of the Ring tournament, this
game offers one-on-one matches, tag-team bouts,
and the World Wrestling Federation Champion-
ship Belt tournament in which you battle seven
opponents.
So are you a king ... or a wimp? If your heart
races at the sight of a beautiful body slam or a
textbook pin, then King of the Ring is your key to
hours of fun.

IthoughTom and Jerry: The Movie
is obviously adapted from last summer's
cartoon feature — in which cat and
mouse finally joined together to destroy
a third enemy — it seems more firmly
rooted in the original cat-bash-mouse ad-
ventures. Sure, the game opens with a storyline in which
Tom tries to beat Jerry to an old treasure chest, but the plot
is just an excuse for the sort of senseless violence kids
expect on Saturday morning TV.
But the game designers realized something the
movie's producers now wish they'd caught on to:
Senseless violence is exactly what
gamers want. We don't need
to hear T om and J erry
speak — we just want
to see them chasing
each other like mani-
acs. We don't want a
story — we just want
to see Tom blown to
smithereens.
Tom and Jerry suc-
ceeds in capturing that Saturday morning
spirit in a couple of ways. First of all, the
graphics (although not necessarily the ani-
mation) actually look like cartoon fare. Sec-
ondly, the whole game is just a hectic cat and
mouse chase. Although it's pretty violent,
Tom returns unscathed after every explo-
sion or other near-death experience.
Unfortunately, the traps and pitfalls
show a general lack of creativity. Bombs
and land mines are cool in themselves, but
an occasional "tail in the electrical socket"
trap would be appreciated. Even more im-
portantly, the game player plays Tom the
hapless instead of Jerry the cunning. While
you may get some satisfaction out of turn-
ing Jerry into Cat Chow (although not as
much as watching, say, the Roadrunner get
his), it seems ridiculous that the game would
be the exact opposite of the cartoon.
Tom has a chance to
uncover ancient treasure
— but he must beat
Jerry to it!
The pounce [B button] is helpful
as you move from platform to
platform. In general, however,
use it only if you have a clear
shot at nabbing Jerry.

Brooms move back for a few seconds,
then brieflg stop. You can pass them
safely as long as they aren't moving.
Tom’s biggest obstacles in
level 3 are flying fish
that keep jumping in his
way. Use the normal jump
as soon as they hit the
water.
The mushrooms in
the level-4 forest are
particularly danger-
ous because they
create a spread-fire
effect. To avoid
getting hit, run to
the mushrooms’
original position,
allowing the debris
to fall on either side.

You’ve got to hit the correct
switches at the correct times
to survive the final level. Make
a wrong move, and gou’re

Q@iM4
If you don’t catch Jerrg before he
finishes a level, you must face a
boss. The first is a bulldog that
guards Jerry. Lure him into the
hole to the left, then jump over
it to nab Jerry.
Evil bats swarm around your
head after the fourth level. Try
to avoid them as you make your
way toward the upper left corner.
The switch there controls the
platform over Jerry’s head. Flip
the switch, then head back down
— you’re home free.
The final boss is a skull-tossing
snake. Use the tried-and-true
crustacean strategy, but be
prepared to dodge skulls that fall
from the ceiling, too.
GP
When these two crows
attack in level two,
they come at your
head from either
direction. Duck to avoid
them, then pounce on
Jerry quickly before
they attack again.
The third boss is nasty crusta-
cean that spews pearls. Jump or
duck to avoid a pearl missile,
then do the opposite when it
ricochets off the left wall. If you
avoid its blow, it blasts the crab
instead — Five hits, and he’s
outta there.
A bonus
game at the
end of each
level lets you
refill — and
maybe
expand —
your energy
meter. The
first is a Pac-Manish maze filled with
hearts. The bigger the heart, the more
energy you get. Catch Jerry before
time runs out, and your meter
grows by one heart.
In the second bonus
game, Jerry moves from
window to window, ran-
tossing hearts and
explosives. If you
collect enough
hearts before
you overdo it
with explosives,
your energy
meter is filled and
expanded by one
heart.

After dominating the movie and video
industry with its recent hits-tumed in-
stant classics Beauty and the Beast
and Aladdin, Disney is now trying to
make its mark in the video game in-
dustry.
Virgin Interactive has opened up
the Disney video vault and used its
video gaming know-how to produce an
SNES cart of an earlier Disney ani-
mated classic, The Jungle Book. In the
game, young Mowgli explores various
levels, collecting fruits and gems. Along
the way, monkeys, snakes, and other
unfriendly animals try to slow Mowgli’s
progress. Fortunately, there are also
friendlier members of the animal king-
dom that aid the young boy throughout
his journey.
Game Players got a sneak peek at
an early, unfinished version of The
Jungle Book, and although some as-
pects of the game may change before
it hits the shelves, here’s a preview of
this hot new game.
A lot of items are hidden, so
keep a lookout for entrances
to secret areas. You just may
find a precious extra life.
Beware the thorny
bushes — look above
them for swinging vines
to help you get across
safely.
Don’t waste any time on these old
bridges — they crumble beneath
your feet as soon as you step on
them.
These prickly

For those of you who don’t know the routine, here’s the story: Blood flows and

on-one matchups. The eras range from 20,000 B.C. to A.D. 4002, and battle-axes,
chainsaws, and photon blades are among the wielded weapons. Just make sure
you’re not on the wrong end of these weapons or you’ll find out what fighting someone with
one arm tied behind your back is like. The only difference is that your arm won’t be tied —
it’ll be gonel
As with all good (or bad) fighting games, Time Killers lets you pound your friends in

ur story begins with the burglary of all of Rocky , L ’"S
" and Builwinkle’s treasures, a priceless collection that jSaqff
was headed for the museum in downtown Frostbite Fails, It '”-vJ
doesn't take a genius — good thing, too — to figure out thatthe job
could only have been pulled by those evil spies, Boris Badenov and ™
Natasha Fatale.
Luckily, Moose and Squirrel are hot on the thieves’ heels. You must recapture
thetreasures by descending into the depths of Upsidasium Mines, scaling Whynchutaka
Peak, entering the belly of Maybe Dick, or entering the Chamber of Horrors. Horrors!
You’ve seen them in cartoons and eating tacos, but check out Rocky and Bullwinkle on
1 6-bit! In The Adventures of Rocky and Bullwinkle and Friends , eight levels stand between
the famous duo and their treasures. Mini-games starring Dudley Do-Right and Mr. Peabody
add to the fun.
The graphics in Rocky and Bullwinkleare average, but what it lacks in pictures, it makes
up for in challenge. Be preprared for some very hard — sometimes frustratingly so — game
play. If it weren’t for the mini-games in which you gain extra lives, Moose and Squirrel would
be foiled by Boris and Natasha for sure!

T] First Soccer Title for EA
Now that it has mastered football and hockey, Electronic Arts is
turning its eye toward the world’s most popular sport — soccer.
FIFA International Soccer is currently inproduction for Genesis.
The game features 40 international teams, each true to its own
playing style, and a three-quarter overhead perspective so

U.K.’s Best Soccer Sim Crosses the Pond
Atlus’s World Soccer ’94: Road

version of England’s critically
acclaimed and popular success

Soccer ‘94 has got just about ev-
ery feature you could wish for —
even an indoor soccer mode!
What’s even more impressive is
that the game is only four megs,
about half the programming space
of its competitors. But what it
does in those four megs deals a
swift kick to other sims.

lineup and chosen from eight

on), you can select Super Cup

64 teams in a three-to-six round
contest (one loss equals elimi-

The top-flight sound
effects are also a
highlight — espe-
cially the roars of the
frenzied crowd. You
can also customize a
team, changing the
uniform, hair color,
skin tone, and play-
ers’ names.
If there’s a
drawback to World Cup Soccer
’94: Road to Glory, it’s with its

Sports Illustrated Football/Baseball
THQ offers sports fans a
“twofer” this year — as in
two-for-the-price-of-one.
Sports Illustrated Football /
Baseball is two eight-meg
games crammed onto one
cartridge.
THQ tried this once be-
fore: Does anyone remem-
ber the somewhat ill-fated Bo
Jackson Football/Baseball for
NES and Game Boy? Probably
not. But not to worry — Sports
Illustrated is luckily in another
class. For one thing, the game
was designed by THQ’s new de-
velopment partner, Malibu Inter-
active (led by sports veteran Bob
Jacobs). Malibu’ s previous games
include Cal Ripken Baseball for
SNES and Genesis, David
Robinson Supreme Court Bas-
ketball for Genesis, and the TV
Sports products for TurboGrafx-
16.
The football portion of Sports
Illustrated features all the NFL
franchises in the 1993 schedule
— - but don’t look for your favor-
ite players. Thegamedoesn’thave
a players’ license. It does, how-
ever, have a fairly unique per-
spective, a three-quarter overhead
view similar to Nintendo’s Super
Play Action Football. When a
ballcarrier breaks away from the
pack, the screen zooms in for a
closeup. The Sports Illustrated
players are smaller than those in
Super Play Action , but they’re
much more realistically animated.
The baseball half of the game
looks and plays a little like Cal
Ripken Baseball , with a behind-
the-batter perspective that shifts
to a bird’ s-eye three-quarter view
to follow the ball. Once again, all
the Major League franchises are
included — even the new Florida
and Colorado teams — but none
of the players is around.
Sports Illustrated Baseball/
Football features full-season play
for both sports and a password
system to save your progress. It
should hit stores before the end of
the year.

NFL Quarterback Club
Licensing has come to play a
major role in the design of a
sports simulation. If a company
adds a league license (i.e., the
NHL, NBA, etc.), its game can
include the uniforms, team
names, and league schedules. If
a players’ association such as
the NHLPA is added, the de-
velopers can use names and like-
nesses of actual players.
However, the NFL Quar-
terback Club, which lists among
its members the best QBs in
football — Aikman, Cunning-
ham, Elway, Kelly, Moon, and
Y oung, for example — is sepa-
rate from the NFLPA license,
creating a major pain for com-
panies trying to develop a real-
istic gridiron simulation.
Acclaim nabbed the QB
Club for its latest sports effort,
then turned to those program-
ming Aussies, the team at Beam
Software (they also developed
Acclaim’s so-so NBA All-Star
Challenge). NFL Quarterback
Club is an overall enjoyable
title for Game Boy, but it’s
fairly simplistic, and in the long
run, it doesn’t have much to do
with football at all.
In the four-part competi-
tion of Quarterback Club, hu-
man players can control up to
six of the QBs. Each quarter-
back accumulates points in the
four contests, and the player
with the most points at the end
walks off with 30,000 video-
game dollars. Individual prizes
are also awarded to the top per-
formers in each category.
Here’ s how the four events
break out: the Accuracy com-
petition tests your ability to hit
six targets — one stationary
and five moving. It’s not hard
to master this event, since the
distance to each target is easily
gauged by a horizontal meter at
the bottom of the screen. The
Speed and Mobility contest is
an obstacle course that has your
QB ducking a chin-up bar, run-
ning cones, tackling a dummy,
jumping a wall, then tossing a
football at a stationary target.
This is definitely the least inter-
esting event: the quarterbacks
seem to have the same running
speeds (which is sure not true in
real life!), so winning comes
down to hitting a bull’s-eye for
a time bonus.
The button-bashing Dis-
tance competition has you
thumping on the A and B but-
tons to make a meter rise so
your QB can throw the ball far-

Super Baseball 2020
You’ve heard of the aluminum
bat controversy in baseball. How
about an aluminum player con-
troversy? Super Baseball 2020
is a game for men of metal in
which money makes the league
go ‘round.
Electronic Arts’s Genesis
version of this NEO-GEO
game comes on the heels of the
SNES game from Tradewest
(see August, Vol. 6, No. 8).
The only difference in the two
is that EA includes the “crack-
ers” of the original game —
the land mines placed on the
field. You get more and more
crackers in each inning, begin-
ning with the second.
Don’t expect the strategy
of a traditional baseball simu-
lation in Super Baseball 2020
— it’s more of a power-hitting
contest in which each batter
tries to blast the ball over the
center-field fence. Center field
is the only place where a pow-
erful drives counts as a homer;
left and right field are consid-
ered “in-play,” as is a good por-
tion of the seating areas by first
and third bases.
Two leagues of six teams
do battle during a 15 -game sea-
son. Your team can have hu-
mans, robots, or a mixture of
both. The teams earn money for
each good move — runs, field-
ing plays, strike-outs, and so
on. It’ s up to you how to use the
money to power-up your play-
ers. You can boost the power,
fielding (speed), or pitching
ability of any human player, or
replace any robot with a more
powerful model.
Like most NEO-GEO
games, Super Baseball 2020
had spectacular graphics. The
SNES version duplicated them
perfectly, but the Genesis game
doesn’tfare as well. The graph-
ics seem washed out and
vaguely unfocused, but the
frantic, electronic music and
bizarre robo-announcer voices
remain true to the original.
Even if you’re a simulator
purest who frowns on “frivo-
lous” sports games, you should
give Super Baseball 2020 a try.
It’s mindless sports mayhem
that’s a lot of fun to play.

NHL ‘94
It comes as no surprise to sports-
games fans that Electronic Arts
is better at creating Genesis
games than SNES. A conversa-
tion with some EA program-
mers sheds some light on the
subject: The consensus is that
Genesis is simply an easier
machine to work on, while Su-
per Nintendo is, to quote an EA
producer, “a major pain.”
That helps explain why
NHL Hockey and John Madden
Football are Genesis classics
while the SNES translations of
the same games have been only
average, with spotty ani-
mation and poor game play .
But EA seems to have
solved most of its SNES
problems with NHL ‘94,
which isn’t as fantastic as
the Genesis version ... but
it’s closer than ever before.
NHL ‘94 has goalie con-
trol, penalty shots, a shoot-out
mode, individualized rink mu-
sic, and an NHL license. But
most importantly, NHL ‘94
moves almost as smoothly on
Super NES as it does on Gen-
esis.
The SNES NHL ‘94 differs
from the Genesis version be-
cause it doesn’t have a battery
backup — you must enter a
lengthy password instead — and
you can’t save stats, either,
which is a major bummer. But
170
on the plus side, the colorful
SNES player profiles look much
better than the Genesis’s B&W
ones, and the sound effects, from
the crunch of hard-board checks
to the slash of steel blades on
ice, are superior.
Many of the same new fea-
tures of the Genesis game are
found in the SNES NHL ‘94,
too. For example, the NHL li-
cense really enhances the look
of the game, with accurate home
After several average attempts
at high-quality sports simula-
tions for Genesis, Sega of
America has gotten serious.
Gone are the days of sub-par
efforts that feature a big-ticket
athlete and nothing more. Nowa-
days, the “Sega Sports” brand
marks a commitment to realistic
16-bit sports. We hope.
Sega’s first effort under the
Sega Sports banner is
Wimb ledon, a one-to-four player
(simultaneous, with five-player
adaptor) tennis simulation. Ten-
nis isn’t usually what compa-
nies pick to launch a new sports
lineup, but Sega’s taking extra
care with some of its “money”
titles, such as World Series Base-
ball, NBA Action Hosted By
Marv Albert, and NFL Football
'94 Starring Joe Montana. So
Wimbledon bears the burden of
the first Sega Sports seal.
G P SPORTS
and away uniforms and full-
color team logos. The NHL li-
cense also means that the fight-
ing has been removed and re-
placed with harder checking,
including board and bench
checks.
Other new features include
manual goalie control, penalty
shots, and a special shoot-out
game. On offense you have two
new weapons at your disposal
— “flip passes” that let you pass
the puck through the air up ice,
and the “one-timer” pass to an
open teammate, who catches
and shoots the puck in one quick
motion.
Electronic Arts wasn’t able
to create a smoothly animated
John Madden for Super NES
until its third try, and NHL ‘94 is
only its second time at bat, so to
speak. But much of the kinks
Wimbledon
Several innovations in
Wimbledon indicate that the Sega
sports gurus are serious when
they make their ambitious claims
about upcoming titles . These five
unusual options can be turned
on or off before each match be-
gins, and they really enhance the
game. For example, the Color
Signal alters the hue of the ten-
nis ball, helping you make the
precise shots. Dynamic Sizing
gives the ball a 3-D look by
increasing or decreasing its size
as it rises and falls — an espe-
cially important option since dif-
ferent court surfaces result in
different types of bounce.
A Timing Chime pings the
moment a ball clears the net.
This should _
help you time Bj
your swing, I
but the action I
moves pretty H
quickly, so if s I
often not ef- I
fective. The I
Bound Pointer
is more helpful, placing a mark
where a hit ball should bounce.
Since your view of Wimbledon
is slightly higher above the play-
ers than in most sims, this helps
you set up for your return shot.
But Wimbledon’s coolest
innovation is its Locus Display,
which shows the flight path of
every volley or serve. The flight
path is shown as a green, ghostly
image — a chain of luminescent
orbs that extends from the racket,
over the net, to the other side of
the court. It also indicates how
high the bounce will be.
While Wimbledon doesn’t
offer the broad array of shots
that some Super Nintendo titles
do, its game play is more than
their equal. Even using all the
helpful enhancements, you’ve
got a tough challenge against
computer players. Graphically,
the players are on the small side,
but they’re quite detailed.

Gomez starts with five lives, but
he can sustain only two hits before
dying. You can banish most mon-
sters by jumping on them, but watch
out for the ones with spikes — you
can get rid of them, but it costs you an
energy heart. And remember that
when you leave a board and return,
so do the monsters.
What could have turned out to
be a boring Mario clone is actually an
interesting and challenging game.
The Addams Family has a lot of vari-
ety, and it's complex without being
impossible. Those Addamses may
be spooky and kooky, but this game
is just plain fun.
Ambigail Craven has Uncle Fester
under her spell — literally! The witch
has bewitched Fester into helping
her kidnap the rest of the Addams
family, with the exception of Gomez.
Now it's up to him to save the rest of
the family — and the family fortune
— from Abigail's clutches.

MINDSCAPE
SUPER NES
Captain America
and the Avengers
60 Leveroni Court;
Novato, CA 94949
laptain America and the Avengers
is pretty basic when compared to
other recent comic-book based
games (i.e., the awesome X-Men for
Genesis). The Cap'n and his crew
roam the streets, beating up on both
’ small-time crooks and bona fide su-
per villains, all of whom are under
the control of the infamous Red Skull.
It's Double Dragon city, but on the
whole, the game works well for sev-
eral reasons.
For example, the guys at
Mindscape have gone out of their
way to inject the game with an old-
time comic-book feel. From the open-
ing straight-from-the-comics expo-
sition screen to the heroes' patriotic
zest, you get the impression that
you're participating in a giant parody
of the comic-book world of yester-
year in which even the digitized nar-
rator has a perfect voice for such
inspired cominess.
Cool
Move #1:
The Jumping Attack. Press B to jump, Y for the
regular attack, then use the directional button to
attack from above. Here’s a powerful drop kick.
attacks in competition with a fellow
avenger controlled by a second
player.
Captain America does suffer from
a few flaws: The occasional slow-
down doesn't hurt game play, but it
does add to the overall "rough around
the edges" impact of the game. Also,
initiating a special attack is
much too complicated — if you
ended up with a Mortal Kombat
finishing move, then it would
be worth the effort, but the ba-
sic slide or charge in Captain
America should have been
given its own button.
Hawkeye battles
the bad guys
with powerful
explosive
arrows.
Cool Move #2: Toss
that Peon. Lesser
villains can be des-
troyed by slamming
them against the
concrete. Get
directly beside
them, pick them
up with the Y
button, then hit
Y again to
throw them.
Iron Man and Vision share the ability
to fire energy bursts when you hit
the A button.
The laser-blasting
boys can also do the
r flight thing. Combine
the two by jumping,
then pressing A to
fire while hovering
in midair.
Activate the
heroes’ special
weapons with
the A button. Captain America demonstrates
his boomerang shield.
If you perform this laser-flight move
during a particularly high jump, the
laser blasts at an angle.
And although the combat is fairly
generic, the boys are equipped with
enough special moves to keep it in-
teresting. It's still a far cry from Street
Fighter II, but the choice of attacks
combined with the choice of charac-
ters adds enough strategy to make
Captain America more interesting
than the usual street-fighting games.
There's even a training mode that
allows you to practice your special
-
Hawkeye also has the best special at-
tack. To perform his killer slide, press
and hold A, launch yourself into a
forward run, then tap A again when
you near the other side of the screen.

I hey couldn't leave you hanging
any longer — would they or wouldn't
they? Well, they did. Last summer's
highest-flying action/adventure is
now an SNES game. In Cliffhanger,
you play Gabe Walker, a Rocky
Mountain rescue ace, whose sole
quest is to save your friends and
pulverize the megalomaniac Qualen
and his band of crazed fugitives.
Cliffhanger is a typical beat-up-
the-bad-guys game, with seven lev-
els of action that basically follow the
movie's plot. You're searching for
three metal cases that together con-
tain $100 million in cold cash. Once
you have them, you can trade the
money for the lives of your friends.
Of course, you've got plenty of com-
petition as you search for the money....
Using a knife increases your attack
power, but you can get in first licks
by throwing it, too.
Although the Sylvester Stallone
movie was full of action, the SNES
game doesn't live i
T he play control is
you lose all your lives, you
continuing from back at
ning of the level instead of
you died. You can't save
progress, either, so Cliffhanger gets
frustrating fast. It looks good, but
you just climb, run, shoot, and jump
ravines. Maybe you should just rent
the movie instead.
These snipers fire in two-shot sequences.
Try to time your movements and attack
between blasts.
And don’t forget that flying kick!
The super-kick is your best
defensive and offensive move,
but use it sparingly — it really
drains your energy.
You get the weapons of the bad guys you
beat up. For the best results, try to get your
hands on a gun.
Don’t stop when tailed by bats or
an avalanche — just run and jump
as fast as you can.

Don’t panic
if you don’t
have a good
weapon as
you face the
boss. Simply
wait for him
to crack his
whip, move
in for a quick strike, then quickly back off. It’s
time consuming, but effective.
Dram Stoker's Dracula is loosely
based on last fall's spooky movie
extravaganza: As you may recall, that
yuppie of yesteryear, Jonathan
Harker, tries to rescue his fiancee
from the evil fangs of Count Dracula.
This video game shares the
movie's locales and primary villains,
but it really doesn't follow the plot.
In fact, the only consistent reminder
of the game's inspiration is the video-
game hero's resemblance to his big-
screen counterpart, Keanu Reeves.
But most game veterans will recog-
nize a much larger resemblance to
another vampire classic — the
Castlevania games. Dracula follows
the game play and atmosphere of
that series almost shamelessly. Well,
OK, Genesis needs a Castlevania
game, and Bloodlines is still a few
weeks away.
Facing another boss unprepared?
This dragon pauses his fire-breathing
after every third blast. Attack
accordingly.
Energy refills are few and far between, so be
sure to search thoroughly for the few
available. Look for this flask in a secret room
behind a wall on the second level.
You’re chased by a
trio of demon-
possessed women
after you face the
dragon. Move as
quickly as possible,
but don’t forget to
watch for spikes.
Time to face old Dracul. His
formula: stand still, shoot
downward, shoot across.
Your formula: attack, jump
on left platform, return
quickly to lower platform.

Unfortunately, Dracula
may look like Castlevania,
but it has so many rough
edges that it'll cut ya if
you're not careful. In ad-
dition to the unpolished sound and
graphics, here's an example of game
play: During much of the game, you
must locate various special weap-
ons that make boss-bashing
easier. If you're killed in the
middle of a level, however, you
probably won't get the chance to
nab the special weapon, so you
end up losing more lives fight-
ing the boss. That makes a con-
tinue feature more annoy-
ing than helpful. Combine
that with an illogical dam-
age system (step on a
mouse, lose one container;
impale yourself on a giant
spike, lose one container)
and several other minor
grievances, and you come
up with a game that just isn't as good
as it should have been.

^Although King of the Monsters has
been around in various video-game
formats (a sequel is already out), this
is the first Genesis version. The plot,
however, is the same: four super-
monsters fight each other while be-
ing attacked by airplanes, tanks, and
other weapons of war. Think of it as
a Street Fighter game crossed with an
old Godzilla vs. Rathadon- style B
movie.
While that might sound like
cheesy fun, the problem with King of
the Monsters is that these monsters
just aren't very interesting. Instead
of quality B-movie antiheroes, you've
got guys who look like they were
rejected at The Avengers tryouts and
went on a city-wide rampage in re-
venge.
What's more, once you peel off
the warts and scales, the fighters are
all the same. Sure, Beetle-Mania
might perform an Atomic drop in-
stead of a mere back-drop like the
rest of the crew, but none of the
characters really takes on a distinct
personality. The individual scenes
have that same sense of sameness.
When you reach the final city, To-
kyo, for example, it looks like just
another generic city that happens to
have an occasional hint of Japanese
architecture.
Choose one
of four
monsters,
then fight
against a
friend or the
computer.
Close in on
your enemy,
then press
Down and A
for a killer
suplex.
That generic quality goes for the
technical aspects as well — espe-
cially in the graphics. If one blue guy
is fighting another, it can be hard to
tell where monster A ends and mon-
ster B begins. By the same token, the
mundane music could drive you
bonkers. And for a fighting game.
King of Monsters has only the stan-
dard moves you've seen a thousand
times before.
Simultaneously press the C and A buttons to
drop-kick your opponent.
Geon’s power weapon is the Flame
Crusher — a stream of flame sure to take
out anything in its path.
Beetle-
Mania fires
Beetle
Missiles.
Astro Guy fires powerful Flash
Waves, which distinguish them-
selves from Flame Crushers by
their blueness.
Rocky can crush
opponents with his
Rocky Bomber — a
truly powerful
weapon that bears
many similarities to
ordinary rock.

\A/ith the fall of the Soviet Union,
military superpowers are forced to
slash their budgets, resulting in a
huge surplus of advanced
hardware. High-tech weap-
ons are soon appearing for
sale on the international
black market, and an un-
known power has used the
all-too-available hardware
to attack a Middle Eastern
country. It's your job to en-
gage the enemy and destroy
his forces.
Even though air-combat simula-
tions have evolved to a shockingly
real level, the good old-fashioned
Afterburner arcade-style fighter
games have survived. Lock On has
taken this an extra step: combining
air combat with ground-attack strike
missions. The pace is fast, and there
are always plenty of bogies at which
to shoot.
Lock On is tough at first — there
are 22 enemies to destroy in your
very first mission — but once you get
the hang of the weapon systems, you
should be knocking 'em out of the
sky. You're given a choice between
two aircraft at the beginning of each
mission, and you can also adjust the
number of missiles with which your
plane is equipped. You probably
won't need extra, however; there's
, an awful lot of ordnance slung under
your wing. Since there's no pass-
word feature, be sure to use the op-

If you've always dreamed of racing
vehicles across pool tables, school
desks, and bathtubs, then hold on to
your helmet — welcome to Micro
Machines. Who needs hot asphalt
when you can race through your
house as one of 11 different racers in
oneofnine different Micro Ma-
chines on 32 different tracks?
There's no way you're going to
tire from this game!
You can race in the Chal-
lenge level against all the rac-
ers, or you can go head-to-head
with a friend. There are even
bonus time trials if you're good
enough to place first in three
different races. Oil slick: to be avoided.
Unlike a lot of video games based
on toys. Micro Machines is original,
fun, humorous, and colorful. Since
you can set the drivers' handicaps,
you can decide how much challenge
you want, and increase the skill level
as you gain practice. But here's just a
little advice: don't slip in the milk,
that ruler is probably a bridge, and
watch out for those bubbles!
You sink and lose

watch out —

Ms Pierre le Chef, you're about to
prepare your famous soup — when
all your ingredients decide to make a
run for it. You're only choice is to
chase after your food to
save your recipe from
disaster.
You travel through
48 levels in six countries
armed only with a big
net and a massive appe-
tite. Once you've
stunned, jumped, or cor-
nered a vegetable or
other ingredient, you can put it in a
cage for safekeeping. Get rid of the
particularly nasty vegetables before
they make mincemeat out of you!
Specialty items such as wooden
spoons, flaming flambe, or magic
aprons add spice to Out to Lunch,
and secret bonuses and hidden lev-
els are sweet to find. There's also a
one- or two-player option and a high-
score table that keeps track of the
lead chef.
The only downfall in Out to Lunch
is that the play control is a little weak —
a big disadvantage when you spend
your time chasing things. It's also dif-
ficult to judge your distance from the
various food items. If you get too close,
you're knocked down and drop all the
food you've collected.
But Out to Lunch has a great game
concept, and you have to admire the
designers for its fun, but nonviolent
theme. It 7 s fun to chase after food that
doesn't follow a set pattern, but in-
stead runs from you with some intelli-
gence. Out to Lunch lets you play with
your food and not get in trouble for it!
The snowmen in this bonus world want
you to have a ball!
If you find these bells, ring each
one once (starting from the left),
then grab the giant snowflake to
enter a secret warp.

ust when you thought driver's
education taught you all you really
need to know behind the wheel....
You learned to stay in your lane,
keep a safe distance behind the car in
front of you, and, most importantly,
never, ever speed.
Well, you'd better roll
down the window
and throw out that
driver's ed mentality
if you expect to get the most out of
Race Drivin'. This Genesis cart is the
home version of the arcade hit, but
without the arcade's realistic steer-
ing wheel, pedals, and stick shift.
Since you use only a normal control-
ler, putting the car through its paces
takes quite a bit more dexterity —
especially when choosing to shift
the car manually.
Although cruising along at
speeds reaching 140 mph may give
you quite a rush, colliding head-on
with an oncoming 18-wheeler
may not have the same effect.
And taking a corkscrew at over
120 mph may be exhilarating, but
one wrong move could be the
equivalent of bungee- jumping
without a cord. You get to relive
all the fiery wrecks on instant
replay, which takes you out of the
driver's seat to give you an aerial
view of the scene.
Precious seconds are added to
the clock as you pass vari-
ous track checkpoints,
but if you run out of time,
your car dies in mid-
vroom. Another timer
keeps track of your lap
time — if you beat the
qualifying time on either the origi-
nal or the super-stunt track, you're
challenged by that track's defending
champion. Beat him, and you be-
come the champ.
In general. Race Drivin' doesn't
capture the realism and excitement
of its arcade counterpart. But for arm-
chair racers, it's worth your time to
buckle up and give it a test drive.

Lightbulbs flash at
Konami and a new
hero is born —
Sparkster the
Rocket Knight!!!
■Xonami has struck gold with one of
its best 16-bit titles yet. Rocket Knight
Adventures. As wily opossum
Sparkster, it's up to you to lead the
Rocket Knights into battle against
the evil forces of Emperor Devotindos
and Axle Gear, the Black Knight.
These guys have terrorized the king-
dom of Zebulos and taken its prin-
cess hostage. Is there no end to their
villainy?
The game play in Rocket Knight
is reminiscent of early 8-bit hits such
as Capcom's Mega Man. There's a
fresh challenge around every comer
— the game never lags in any one
place long enough to become tiring
or repetitious. As in many action
titles, much of the game's suc-
cess rests on its star character. Is
he easy to control? Is he well
animated? Does he possess
unique abilities that add to the ^
overall structure of the game? -
Sparkster's answer is "yes" in 8
every case — plus he's one good-
lookin' possum.
Rocket Knight Adventures gives
you the classic game play that estab-
lished Konami back in the early days
of video games, as well as the 16-bit
graphics and state-of-the-art technol-
ogy of today. Now all we need is a

Combat is handled in semi real-
time — similar to the interface in
Electronic Arts 'Immortal (and other
games). Basically, you're on-screen
with your opponent and can dodge
his blows or lunge with one of your
own. Most enemies can be defeated
if you master a certain combination
of dodges and blows. This may be
appreciated by action fans, but role-
players may prefer the menu-strat-
egy arrangements more common to
true RPGs.
As a whole, Spellcraft is a good
game, but it's fairly generic. The cook-
book approach to spellcasting is bet-
ter than the overly complicated meth-
ods used by lots of magic-oriented
RPGs, but that's really the game's
only original element. Spellcraft de-
pends on a dated gaming concept
that just can't compete with more up-
to-date RPGs. However, there aren't
that many RPGs for Super N intendo,
so Spellcraft's release is worth cel-
ebration for that fact alone.

Dorothy’s primary weapons are jewels and
yellow bricks that she throws at her
enemies. Her supply is limited, though, so
use them sparingly.
" ■ orget the classic L. Frank Baum
& books — this video game is strictly
based on the equally classic 1939 film.
Since the average viewer has had the
pleasure of watching that particular
movie at least 56 times, it should be
. obvious what to expect in a video-
game adaptation. Unfortunately, this
title doesn't quite make the trek down
the yellow brick road.
The problem with The Wizard of
■ Oz is that if it's going to be based on
■ the movie, it should stick to the plot.
■ The action that follows Dorothy is
obvious filler, while the real action
mJM scenes — such as the tornado that
H brings her to Oz — are used only as
■BH an intro sequence. By the same to-
W ken, Dorothy's visit in Munchkin
Br Land is reduced to one scene in
V which you invade Munchkin homes
and fight their furniture while col-
^ lecting jewels to throw at frogs and
lemons (!).
The Wizard of Oz also manages
l to fall short in the technical depart-
ij m ment. It takes some effort, for ex-
ample, to recognize the songs used
in the soundtrack, despite the fact
that it's one of the most recognized
musicals ever. The notes are there,
but the hollow-sounding instrumen-
tation results in an overly muddy
PPP sound that only gets worse if you
s connect the SNES to a quality stereo.
% , The simple fact of the matter is
^ that this cart doesn't take advantage
jKL either of the SNES capabilities or the
* movie on which it's based. It's not a
V- ' bad game, per se, but with the mate-
B || rial Seta had to work with, it could
** have been a whole lot better.
Enemies that
aren’t hop-
ping or flying
can usually
be taken out
with a solid
kick.
...then switch back to Dorothy and float to

When you’re in the biz, you hear things.
Strange things. Disturbing things. Things that
no man, woman, or child should ever know.
Sometimes we hear game stuff, too.
For instance, Sega’s Virtua FightersvM be
coming to Genesis in late ’94 after its stint as
an arcade game. Look for the same polygon
technology as in Sega’s Virtua Racing. • And
speaking of lighting games, American
Sammy will bring Survival Artsto arcades in
early ’94 and possibly to home platforms
soon after. • Even though Bandai won’t be
showing at the Winter CES, don't count it out.
tts Mighty Morphin’ Power Rangerstoys are
at the top of the charts and primed for SNES
and Genesis release sometime next spring. •
Argonaut will develop for Electro Brain the first
third-parly Super FX game, called Citadel?
You knew it had to happen — Sega has the
license to Barney the Dinosaur. • FCI, not
American Sammy, will be releasing the long-
delayed Might and Magic III, the mouse-
compatible RPG for Super Nintendo. If you
can find a copy of Razorsoft’ s StormlordM
contains the “show-all” fairies, grab it — it’s
the hottest collectible since Tengen’s original
Tetris. • Congratulations to ASCII, recently
named vendor of the year by Toys ‘FT Us!
That’s a lot of rapid-fire, fellas!
That’s it. My brain hurts.

With all the attention the Genesis
Aladdin is receiving, many players may
have forgotten that Capcom’s been
slaving away on a SNES version of the
record-breaking cartoon. Even though
this version has no ties to Sega's game,
much of the action is similar because
both games follow the movie’s plot so
closely.
As the young “street rat” Aladdin,
you must save the beautiful Princess
Jasmine and restore freedom to the
people under Jafar’s tyrannical sandal.
With only the loyal Abu at your side, it’s
not going to be easy — you’re in for a

Lester the Unlikely is the unlikely star of
DTMC’s holiday lineup. This young lad
Lester doesn't quite get along with his
fellow chums — because he's a GEEK!!
That’s right, he’s a clumsy, worthless,
washed-out moron! He’s gotten himself
into a ton of trouble, and
he expects you to get him
out of it!
AAARRGGGHHH!!!
But... it might be kind
of fun — now that we
think about it, you get to
set Lester against mean
birds, creepy plants,
cannibals..:, this just
might prove to be
interesting, after all!
LESTER
THE UNLIKELY
SUPER
RATTUEnUflK 2
They’re sending you back — back to
the heat of the desert, back to the heat
of combat. And this time, it’s not going
to be easy. It will be a whole lot of fun,
though!
Super Battletank 2 is the land half of
Absolute’s war simulation double-
header, dropping you back inside your
trusty Ml A2 Abrams tank to head
behind enemy lines once more. As with
Turn and Bum, Super Battletank has its
share of new features, such as full-
motion video of enemy armament being
blasted to bits.
Fans of the first Battletank can
expect the same high-quality graphics
and sound in this game that made the
original such a winner. Ho doubt about
it, Absolute’s coming out with its guns
a-blazin’i

The air half of Absolute’s war duo looks
very impressive, with a smooth Mode 7
cockpit view. You go up against deadly
military hardware such as MiG fighters
to prove your air superiority in unfriendly
skies.
A ton of cool features — such as full-
motion video replays of your targets
being obliterated and a carrier-landing
scene in both day and night — help
make Turn and Burn a top contender for
flight-sim fans who have been impa-
tiently waiting for their kind of game to
hit Super Nintendo.

the same time. For some games, you may discover brand new moves no one
has ever seen before! Plus, you can take control with independent auto-fire
& slow motion. And the LED screen shows you which buttons are set on
auto-fire. With the SG ProPad 2 you get in-your-face action! .
